I have been a teacher for 15 years. I have taught students with I.E.P's, as well as middle school and elementary classes. I am patient, and have had great success. I recently moved from California, and want to focus on tutoring. I am a certified teacher and have FBI clearance. I have multiple certifications in Science, Reading and English. I am proficient in numerous programs, including, but not limited to: Soar to success, REad 180, Accelerated Math, Accelerated Reading, Star assessment, Lexile, Sylvan, and side by side. I can provide personal and professional references. I believe in positive reinforcement and building of self esteem. Thank you for your consideration

Approved subjects

In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.

Elementary (K-6th)

I believe I am qualified to teach all elementary subjects based on my education and my experience. I have a master's in Elementary Education and taught for nine years at Noli Indian School, a 6th - 12th grade Charter school, and at Oak Grove Middle School for four years. I am a California certified teacher with additional credentials in Reading, Science and English that allow me to teach single subject up until the 10th grade. Thank You.

Phonics

I have a master's in Elementary Education and completed a reading component in my program. I taught reading at Noli Indian School as an enrichment as well as remedial classes. I have been trained in Star assessment, Kaplan, Accelerated Reader, Read Now, Read 180, and Soar to Success. I hold a "Reading Certification" as part of my teaching credential both in California and Arizona.

Study Skills

I have a master's in Elementary Education and taught both in Charter Schools and Public Schools. As part of my job teaching English in the school systems, study skills were part of our lesson plans. Taking notes, preparing speeches and research were all incorporated into our classes. All students before graduating had to write and prepare a 10-page PowerPoint project to be delivered to the school board. I believe I am able to teach study skills to all types of learners that hold different types of intelligence. Study skills must match the students preferred way of relating and learning outlined by the multiple intelligence model. Thank you.
